Diversity is the spice of life and these five are very different but I love them all! I have other watches but if I had to chose just five these would be it!

Such incredible pictures mate. And an even more incredible collection of timepieces.

I agree - those are the 5 I'd choose to keep if I had to cut things back.

Perhaps its time to shake things up a little and move on those not pictured with a PP, VC or Breguet... :)

Stunning Altair. Beautiful watches, elegantly assembled and captured with superior photography.

I particularly like the broad selection :bow:

You know I have been thinking about doing just that, might sell a Breitling and a PAM and pick up a Patek 5711R if I can find buyers.

Selling a Breitling and a PAM will still leave you short on a $25k watch like that Patek... :D

If I was to buy a 5711R i'd most likely be moving off the railmaster also. I cant imagine it being worn with the Patek in the house.

Actually found the Patek 5711 in Red gold for about 18000K used, exteremly good deal.


Plus its not just the cost, mentally I cant seem to own so many watches, I have to sell the ones that are not getting wrist time or it seems like a wast to me, I know weird!

I know what you mean! 10 is the absolute upper limit for me if I'm ever going to wear them all at some point.
